Chapter 138 Short-selling
The area of the hostel in Longqu County is not small, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is beautiful.
To the west is the bay of the Dragon Canal. The shallow river three or four meters wide is rewayed here, leaving deep silt and reeds, as well as specially planted lotus flowers. At this time, it reveals a bare stalk, like a dancer drowning in the water ballet.
Most of the buildings in the county hostel are bungalows, in which there are 10-person rooms and 8-person rooms for tourists from south to north to live in.
There are two buildings, both of which belong to the "small hostel", which is the scope of small tricks. One building is a newly built four-storey county party committee building, with a carpet in the grass door at the door, which, as the name implies, is exclusively for the county party committee to entertain distinguished guests. The other building has only two floors. It was built by the commune party committee in the late 1950s in order to "run into communist society". The quality is not bad, and all of them were decorated into a 4-person standard room.
Now, in order to cooperate with Deppon Water Heater Factory, the two-story running building of Xiaozhao has also been handed over, and bosses from other places are running around in different standard rooms.
"Do you have a bill of lading?" Wang Shuo carried a backpack that never left him, and his little eyes were shining strangely.
"Lao Wang, are you here again?" The Shaanxi * westerner who slept in it turned over and laughed and scolded, "You said you were bored. Ask three times a day."
Wang Shuo was not annoyed by what he said. He smiled and said, "Maybe you will have a bill of lading sometime."
"I'd like to have it. It's falling from the sky!"
"3750, I'll give it to you if you want." Wang Shuo took out a bill of lading and said with a smile, "You don't have it."
The people of Shaanxi*xi were stunned: "Good boy, how much did you charge? When was it?"
"Next year's 3750. The price of 10 units is 1,500, and there are 100 units, 3740 units.
"Good boy, you are too cruel."
Wang Shuo smiled with his backpack and said, "Debon's water heater has been sold until March next year. You are still waiting here. Don't you just want to buy a bill?"
This is also the truth. Longqu County is barely a major traffic road. But for businessmen, it's just a passing place. The people who stay in this running building are all on the list of water heaters.
Wang Shuo is not the only one. Almost everyone is interested in the list, and not too much in the water heater.
After all, make money with orders. It's much easier than shipping the goods out. Like Wang Shuo, he sent the truck back and tried his best to make a list here.
The Shaanxi * western man sat up, looked at the other people in the same room, and said vaguely, "If it's the bill of lading this year, it's almost the same. "
"3820." The earliest bill of lading was in Wang Shuo's hands. It was delivered on December 15, and 15 days later, a total of 300 units were delivered. In January of the next year, the number of water heaters will increase to 1,000. Then there was an increase of 2,000 units and 3,000 units. Therefore, the earlier the water heater list is, the more valuable it is.
Shaanxi * Western Hanzi said dissatisfiedly, "You spent 3,600 yuan on an order, and now you want to raise the price by 2,200? It's so easy to make money."
Wang Shuo played with his backpack. He smiled and said, "That's all the list before New Year's Day. If you don't want it, I'll give it to others. Let's say in private that next year's list is also cost-effective. Deppon Water Heater Factory is only willing to put out the list until March next year and add it together. Less than 10,000 units, hey, some are rising.
When they pay the deposit, it is 10% of the price, but when they raise the price, it is naturally based on 3,600 yuan. Therefore, a list of 20 water heaters can double the profit by turning around.
This point was unexpected in Sucheng. He didn't expect that a small bill of lading could be seized by these primitive merchants.
Bold businessmen have long seen the changes of the times. They don't need a master's degree in business administration, and high school graduates can also understand the benefits of short-selling. With the pace of inflation, businessmen have long thought of faster means to quickly earn business travel. Sometimes it's a refrigerator, sometimes it's a washing machine, sometimes it's a TV...
For Deppon Water Heater Factory, the 10% deposit really solves the urgent need. Shu Hao worked for more than a year and saved money and earned 600,000 yuan. Although it exceeds many people, this money is absolutely not enough for production and equipment.
In fact, if it hadn't been for Su Cheng's suggestion and help find a loan, it might really take two or three years for this water heater factory to build, and it can only produce barely used water heaters.
Now, with the supplement of the deposit, the return of bank interest is much easier, and the factory can also recruit more workers and store more materials.
However, to avoid policy risks, Deppon Electric stopped ordering without hesitation after raising enough funds. As a result, it also became an excuse for price increases in the running building.
Before Wang Shuo left behind Wang Shuo's back, the western man shouted, "3710, next year's order, willing to give me 100 sets."
"3750 is the lowest, brother, this is not negotiable."
The two bargained for a while, but after all, there was no price reduction. They traded 100 water heaters for 3,750 yuan, but the order was replaced by one 50, two 20 and one 10.
The Western man of Shaanxi counted 47,000 from the bag under his head and gave it to Wang Shuo. For this order, the gross profit earned by the backpack is 11,000 yuan.
In the 10 years of reform and opening up, those who have earned the first bucket of gold have begun to dig a gold mine and the second gold mine. Compared with ordinary people, in addition to their inner uneasiness, their cash income is too high.
It took China 20 to 30 years to complete the industrialization of foreign countries in two or three hundred years. It took 20 to 30 years for many Chinese to complete the accumulation of wealth abroad in two or three hundred years.
47,000 yuan, which may be more than the savings of the whole village in an ordinary village, but on the running upstairs, it is just to change four thin pieces of paper.
Even if the piece of paper is replaced with a real water heater, it is not enough for farmers in a village to distribute it.
The backpack has been gone for a long time, but it hasn't come back.
The man in the same room with the Shaanxi people originally wanted to wait for another round, but he couldn't help going out and came back and said, "Brother, can you sell me one on the list?"
"Which one do you want?"
"20 sets, 3750 is not, I'll add 10 yuan."
In this way, 20 units will be increased by 200 yuan, which is the salary of ordinary people for three months.
The Western man in Shaanxi was not satisfied. He smiled and said, "Brother, I still want to see it tomorrow. At that time, it will be 3770."
"Then 3770." The man in the same room also began to take money from the pocket in the jacket.
He lifted his clothes, and there was a circle of old cowhide bags around his waist, in which piles of money were tied up with cowhide tendons.
Both of them paid the money and delivered the goods, but the door did not come out, and the price of the water heater was raised by 20 yuan.
The man in the same room got the list, took a closer look, and went out again.
When he came back, the demerged bag bulged back again.
A similar scenario occurred continuously for several days. However, nationwide, it is not new. The price increase information seen in the newspaper every day has shocked the people of the whole country from shock to numbness. At this time, the Chinese sales center went to the sea. In order to cope with the strong sweeping force, it had to use the killer: the household registration policy. It is stipulated that only a household register or marriage certificate can buy a certain amount of salt, matches and aluminum pots...
Dong*ying and Longqu are slow-reacting cities, but at the end of the year, rising prices and slow-adjusted wages eventually led to inevitable panic.
Oilfield workers are better. Because they have products, it is easy to exchange crude oil for daily necessities and distribute them to employees as benefits. They will not let their living standards decline too much.
The research institute can't do it. In the whole Shengli Oilfield, except for the benefits that Dahua Laboratory can afford, other researchers only have dead wages. It's not a matter of a day or two for ethanol people who can't afford to drink alcohol and rubber vulcanization.
Qin Shiwei, who had just taken office, couldn't sit still. When he failed to turn it off from the Administration, he simply borrowed a jeep from Dong*ying to Jinan, and from Jinan to Longqu, and then saw Sucheng in the semi-open factory of Deppon Water Heater Factory.
Qin Shiwei was really anxious. Seeing Su Cheng's back, he rushed over like a bear. Even if the floor was specially hardened by the lathe, he couldn't help trembling under his feet.
He didn't care about Shu Hao and others next to him. He grabbed Su Cheng's neck with his fan-like hand and shouted, "I finally caught you."
Such a bear-like man stunned everyone in front of him.
"Is this revenge?" Liu Pinshan has begun to complete the plot in his head.
However, several workers nearby raised their wrenches and iron bars and shouted, "Put down Director Su."
Su Cheng is actually not working in Deppon Water Heater Factory. He has been running Longqu for a lot of time recently, and there are only a lot of things to do during the construction of the factory. Liu Pinshan and Shu Hao are still responsible for the future management work.
However, for workers, who can make the product, who can sell the product, and who can pay the salary, even if he is not the factory director, he is also the factory director. Deppon water heater has not yet started sales, and part of the deposit has become a salary in arrears and has been distributed to the workers. The name of "Factory Director Su" is naturally in full of day.
Several more workers circled around and blocked the door of the workshop. They were afraid that Qin Shiwei would rob Su City and run away.
Although Su Cheng is stronger than ordinary people, Qin Shiwei is stronger than Chang Xiong. He stood in the aisle left by two rows of machines, making the aisle feel narrower.
Even with a stick, everyone had no confidence to defeat Qin Shiwei, but the workers bravely surrounded them, like a group of wolves against a single bear.
Su Cheng coughed heavily, held Qin Shiwei's shoulder, and smiled, "Dean Qin, what are you doing?"
"I misunderstood, don't misunderstand." Qin Shiwei also realized it and hurriedly apologized to the workers around him. He turned his head and said seriously, "Actually, it's like this, Director Su, I'm here to sell myself!" The pot can't be opened in the courtyard!"
The worker clenched the iron bar again.
